This chapter describes how to check activity on Aurorean Virtual Network
systems by:
H Monitoring system activity, such as the messages exchanged between
Aurorean Virtual Network servers and the RiverMaster.
H Viewing statistics information on active tunnel connections,
including GRE packet and compression performance.
H Using SNMP to gather network statistics.
Monitoring System Activity
Using the Delivery service, Virtual Network systems and connected Aurorean
Client Software clients exchange detailed messages with one another.
RiverMaster captures this message activity as it occurs and displays the
current messages in a viewer window. Messages are also stored in daily log
files and can be later retrieved using an advanced message viewer.
Current Message Activity
Using the RiverMaster message viewer, you can view all messages as they are
sent or filter messages based on three categories:
H Remote user login and logout activity
H Trace messages generated by Enterasys services (such as the
Authorization and Access services)
H Alarms, alerts, and problem notification messages produced by the
Aurorean Policy Server or Aurorean Network Gateway.
